java.lang.RuntimeException: Duplicate class com.google.protobuf.AbstractMessageLite when adding firebase remote config

See original GitHub issue

When I am adding com.google.firebase:firebase-config:19.1.0 to use firebase remote config having this issue.

  java.lang.RuntimeException: Duplicate class com.google.protobuf.AbstractMessageLite found in modules protobuf-java-2.5.0.jar (com.google.protobuf:protobuf-java:2.5.0) and protobuf-lite-3.0.1.jar (com.google.protobuf:protobuf-lite:3.0.1)

I have updated both firebase-analytics and google-play-services to latest version. But still the problem exist. But when I changed remote config to older version 18.0.0 or less then its working fine. But I want to use the latest version.

  • Android Studio version: 3.5.3
  • Firebase Component: “com.google.firebase:firebase-analytics:17.2.2”, “com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:20.1.0”
  • Component version: “com.google.firebase:firebase-config:19.1.0”,

Steps to reproduce:

When I am trying to build and run the application this build error appears.

The protobuf-lite is obsolete dependency last updated in 2016. There is modern protobuf-javalite which should be used by firebase libraries.

For example androidx.security JetPack library uses tink-android which was recently migrated to protobuf-javalite dependency.

The issue is really critical as we can’t use up-to-date firebase library versions until it will migrate to javalite dependency.

Its working after excluding the protobuf-lite dependency but its kind of hack why do we need to exclude that. For me its working but for some other cases it might not work.
